The latter half of 2018 has been a blessing for any and all Pokémon fans, with the likes of Let’s Go Pikachu and Eevee finally coming to the Nintendo Switch and the first trailer for the upcoming live-action movie, Detective Pikachu.
Even if you’ve completed the Let’s Go games by now, you can still keep with the Pokémon cheer all through the pre-festive season thanks to Twitch.
If you weren’t aware, Twitch started streaming every single episode of the Pokémon anime back in the summer, and it’s starting again this Thanksgiving.
On November 22, let’s be thankful…that Seasons 1-5 of Pokémon the Series are coming back to Twitch!
If you missed the marathon or you’re ready for a rewatch, join us for round two at 10AM PT: https://t.co/h3VUgWyLkT pic.twitter.com/ksL57NWKFH

Hooray!
Twitch will be showing every episode from the first five seasons of the anime, and it’s set to kick off at 1pm ET, 22nd November 2018.
The episodes will then run straight through to 3rd December, and will start back up again on Christmas Eve for some holiday specials.
You’ll then have until 3rd January to tune in for some festive fun.
Thanks, Twitch!
Check out the stream here. Will you be watching this holiday period?
As for the Pokémon Let’s Go games, it seems they’ve split opinions on whether they’re actually good or not.

Some fans are loving the return of what’s essentially a vamped-up Pokémon Yellow, but others lament the traditional capturing mechanics, which have been replaced with something akin to the capturing in Niantic’s mobile game, Pokemon GO!.
